I was fortunate enough to get a private (three people including me in our group) of the transmitter site last summer. I saw a sign that was doubtless required by Bonneville's lawyers. There is a

HI Guys: Got a chance to do some Ultralight SUNSET DXing again tonight and managed to bag 2 NEW ones for the ULR Log.....which were also ONE NEW STN for the OVERALL LOG....and a CALL CHANGE for the

While filters with more elements do tend to have higher insertion loss, this does not appear to be much of an issue in real life these days. Usually you have the same specified upper limit regardless

A reply I received from RadioLabs this morning seemed to indicate they not only couldn't they supply the specific filter I was asking about, they won't be selling any parts to hobbyists. I

Hello Richard, Most replacement IF filters do indeed have some"insertion loss," or a reduction in the incoming signal strength when it passesthrough the filter. The amount of insertion loss

Allen, You may be closer to Europe than the rest of us, with a good watershot, but a signal from SLC to you passes over a lot of dirt and through a passel of other signals. Are sitting on top of

Hi Guys, If anyone needs Utah for a state on Ultralight, a couple mornings including last night I logged it with decent signal at 7:30 UTC or around 5 AM Newfoundland Time ( 3:30 AM Eastern)

Hi Guys: Tonight I hunkered in for some SUNSET SKIP DXing with the Ultralight Sangean DT-400W. This is the first time since the radio arrived that I have really sat down and looked around to see

Hi Richard, Upgrade IF filters to improve selectivitymust be designed for the Ultralight radio's actual IF, which is 450 kHz for theDT-400W and most other Ultralights. There is a limited

Dear Folks, I have a SONY ICF-E10W that I purchased in 1983 or 84. A google search revealed a picture of the radi (click on the image for a larger view):

Sorry, I meant to have sent these out earlier. All receptions were on an E100modified with a 2.6 kHz Murata IF filter and connected directly to aWellbrook Phased Array pointed either NW to Asia or SW

Congratulations Allen, logging 300 stations in only a few days is quite an accomplishment. I'm still hoping to log 300 within six months. Maybe I need to come to the shore of Newfoundland.

Hi Dennis, The TP's this morning sounded pretty anemicto me, compared to yesterday. When chasing TP's with stock Ultralights,you are really at the mercy of propagation. If you had tried

Guys...All I could hear on 1540 last night was KXEL in Waterloo, Iowa and a super-strong CHIN in Toronto...with SS music...some of which *sounded* like it was RnB. CHIN sounded like they were a

Way to go, Allen! Gil

"Gill Stacy is involved in that and could get you started. I wonder if you could hear 300 in 30 days on a crystal set." Evan Haydon of Lincoln NE logged 302 stations in this year's Crystal Radio

In a little while (it's about an hour before sunrise) I'll be heading for the beach (less than 5 minutes away on foot) with my stock Sony 2010 as a spotting receiver and my Sangean DT400W looking for

Hello Allen: You know.....way back in Jan/2008 before this award was even thought of...and when I was trying to hear 300 Stations in the First month of having my SONY SRF-59....just fort "Something
